It's rare that you complete a New Years Resolution on Day 1, but oh well! And to think I was going to choose a hard one like run a thousand miles or something.

    nice cannondale!

    A little tip to make the bike fit better, the seat should be high enough that when the pedal is at the bottom of revolution and your heal is on the pedal your leg should be perfectly straight and not bent.
  • nshack 7 months ago
    I was so going to mention that... bike geeks.
  • siggo 7 months ago

    So ace. The timing/editing of the genius musicianship that is Bonnie Tyler was incredible, I was laughing so hard. That and at approx. 0:55, when your videographer (and the collective audience) is like, wait! He's got it, he's got ... oh.

    Congrats!!!

    How are you with roller-blading? I only ask because I think a video of someone learning to roller-blade would be even funnier! Wear padding if you do it--I don't want to feel bad for you, I just want to laugh.

    :]

    Where are you? CA or AZ?
  • Andrew Ryno 7 months ago
    If it were out of those two, I'd say California. I haven't seen one place in Arizona that looks like that.
  • Amir 7 months ago
    Correct!

    Yes... Excellent! I can se now that the force is strong in you amir. Use it! And use it well. And soon you will win Tour de France and bathe in champagne with Lance Armstrong. Tho remember! Champagne leads to drunkenness, drunkenness leads to embarrassing moments, embarrassing moments leads to the dark side.

    Wow! I thought you had it when the music started... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again... I was wrong. Then I thought you had it when the music started again and I was right! Proud of you!

    i joined just to say its mad awkward/hilarious/sojew that i got linked to a video you made by a friend in new york and then promptly realized i went to high school with you. very weird. yet again thinking about high school is not a favorite past time!

    good job on learning in one day. cause i think it took me like 2 days. then again, i was about 4 years old, so...

    j/f/w/y - way to set a goal and annihilate it.

    great job! i bet it's harder to learn at this point than when you're a kid-- your bones are more flexible back then after all.

    out of curiosity, why didn't you learn back then?

    They should make a bike that plays that song whenever it starts moving. That would be awesome! And the faster you go, the louder it gets.
  • Jane Marcus 5 months ago
    oh totally agree.
  • fczuardi 5 months ago
    +1 to that idea!

    Oddly enough, Mike Escamilla rode to that song in a BMX video about a year back.
